I had a strange experience here with a counselor - P. There are many counselors so it may be just…read morethis one. She was EXTREMELY casual and even put her bare feet up on the couch next to me. I was having an issue with a friend, and she snapped, "Think about it from their point of view!" and "That must be so hard for THEM." Nothing about how I was feeling, even though I was the one in counseling. I only went to two sessions and they both ended a few minutes early. During the last session, she kept telling me she had to leave right after the session to beat traffic. She literally left the office right behind me and sped off in her car. It didn't feel like counseling - I felt like I was chit-chatting with my judgmental aunt or something.

I went to the Emmaus Counseling Center in Issaquah and saw counselor Phyllis Bookbinder for several…read morecounseling sessions. She is excellent - always a great listener and empathetic, yet provides thought-provoking and wise professional advice. I found her very helpful from the very 1st appointment, as she coached me through my concerns and issues. I highly recommend Phyllis at this conveniently located Center.

We appreciate Loryann's compassionate and no non-sense approach. She does not waste anyone's time, nor does she tolerate any kind of BS.

We can't thank Loryann enough for the life-changing impact she made for our family.

Highly recommend!

She is our "family doctor"; takes care of me and my kid. I…read moream very happy with her now, and would recommend her to others. On a positive side, she is very caring, geniunely listens to her patients, and considers a very broad set of meds to help you. The latter is important: some doctors would rule many controlled meds that could be very helpful straight away, even if they could help you a lot. On a negative side, we had a bit of a rough start. At times it seemed that she tries to select a treatment with more of an trial end error approach, and some of her errors were... very unpleasant, say so. Still, overall, she is a good doctor that really listens to you. People complaint that her office is disorganized, but this is the last thing I would care about.

Highly Unprofessional - Steer Clear!!…read more My experience with Lynn Crowder was nothing short of appalling. She is neglectful and frankly it makes me question her suitability for a job that requires organization and consistent communication. If you're looking for a therapist who will respect your time, this is absolutely not the person. Lynn was always very disorganized and for whatever reason completely ghosted me, despite a seemingly normal client-therapist relationship. All communication stopped cold. Despite my efforts to reach her (phone calls where I left voicemails, text, and email) I received absolutely zero response (even to this day, several months later). I started worrying that perhaps something happened to her (she is old after all). I eventually called her building (we normally communicate directly), and a colleague confirmed that Lynn was fine and they see her daily. I'm glad to hear she was okay, but that's extremely unprofessional to just ignore someone who is trying to reach you for weeks! I would have just appreciated a heads-up if she had something going on in her life (which she has previously informed me of a couple times when she was a no-show to our remote sessions). A therapist should be reliable and communicate clearly, not knowingly leave people in the dark - that's just unacceptable. To anyone considering her as a therapist just save yourself the headache and go with someone else!

I cannot recommend Lynne highly enough. From the very first session, it was clear that she is not…read moreonly incredibly experienced but also genuinely compassionate. She has a rare ability to listen deeply - really listen - and her presence always feels warm, grounded, and safe. Lynne is the kind of therapist who helps you feel understood and validated without ever being judgmental. She asks thoughtful questions, offers insightful reflections, and guides you toward clarity in a way that feels both smart and supportive. Her kindness comes through in everything she does, and it's obvious she truly cares about her clients' well-being. If you're looking for someone who is a skilled listener, deeply empathetic, and truly invested in helping you grow, Lynne is exceptional. Working with her has been one of the best decisions I've made.

I don't consider myself to be someone who needs constant therapy or medicated help and although Dr…read more MEL is a clinical psychiatrist, when I was looking for more of a counselor to talk to just because I was having a rough couple of months, she came so highly recommended that I decided to give her a try. I have never seen a therapist, psychiatrist, etc., so I don't have anything to compare to, but I do know that one visit with her was enough to convince me that she is the real deal. She is kind, understanding, patient, relatable (SO RELATABLE) - which I think is super important. She didn't think anything I was saying was stupid (and I thought it was so stupid) and just made me feel so comfortable. Her studio is clean, cozy and resembles a residential area so as to make you feel at home. She does take insurance and explained the whole process to me prior to booking my session. I will definitely see her again if I have the need and also recommend anyone I know.

I had a really hard time clicking with my counselor here, so after 4 sessions I decided I should…read moretry somewhere else. It just wasn't the right fit for me. Since canceling back in August, I have been charged an additional $280 by them, split into random chunks of amounts ($25 here, $100 there...) and have literally been calling and emailing for over a month to get someone there to fix it. It would be fine if I heard something back and for some reason I am mistaken, but the fact I have received no response whatsoever is infuriating. Obviously disputing with my bank and will never go here again. Would not recommend.

I came to ECC in a time of crisis when my beautiful sister was in a near fatal car accident. I had…read morePTSD of sorts from the incident and was having nightmares. The grief was disabling during the day also and I was unable to work or do day-to-day tasks, my mind was reeling. I knew there was no way I could do years of counseling to get through it, I needed something fast to help me return to normal life. I called ECC and asked Melanie what she could do to help heal me to accelerate the process of trauma, and get results and relief fast. She introduced me to EMDR and Matrix Reimprinting. I had never heard of such a thing and didn't know the technology behind them , and truly thought they sounded like a waste of time and would not work. But I was desperate. After learning how they work on the brain and body and the historical proven results, I gave them a try. Much to my surprise I was shocked to see that not only did they work but they gave fast results and relief to my grief and pain and reeling thoughts that would not stop. The effects were so positive I couldn't quite believe it could be that easy... I still am baffled and SO incredibly grateful to Melanie and ECC for having these techniques to offer to our community. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! I was able to quickly returned to normal life. I was also able to cope with all that came after the accident well. Later that year I also had a serious incident with a family member that I was feeling similar trauma about and went back to ECC. As the first time, Melanie was able to bring me through it quickly and painlessly with these amazing techniques that seem to good to be true. I have been back to ECC for my relationship too, and it truly helped me for over a year, with the guidance I received from another great therapist there named Kathy. I highly recommend these guys!
